You guys HAVE to make a Batman short film or something with Scott. He’s been wanting to be Batman forever now!!!

[@chrism45]

He would make a great batman

YES!! i would live to see him as batman! it will be so dope!

[@nightshade616]

Scott to me sounds like he could be Gavin Free's big brother

[@barbarusbloodshed6347]

He's very much like the stuntman Brad Pitt plays in "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood". So calm and grounded, centered, lots of presence and for every situation a witty remark on the lips...

[@michel0dy]

Seeing Niko's face as Scott's complimenting his action scenes is just the most precious thing ever

[@JuggyBohab]

i'd go red. honestly you can't get a better compliment from a better guy.

[@ambimu55hak]

That was such a good part of the video, he actually was properly taken aback!

[@xsuckafreesunday]

Scott Adkins is such an underrated actor as well. It's actually criminal.

[@xcurrentbreeze6626]

he should have played Bruce Wayne at least once imo

[@Roiboscrafter]

@Shoenheim na he got to be in the dark knight, he better be happy

[@DubbleTee]

It really is. He is so talented and charismatic. Even does a LEGIT American accent. He deserves AND has earned his right to be in the DC or Marvel Universe... ...and not as "Lucian / Strong Zealot" from Doctor Strange but a major character. Batman would be amazing role for him and we would all like to see him there but sadly I don't think we'll ever see that. I hope I eat my words. Scott, if you're out there and you read this, WE LOVE YOU MAN!

[@ESFDragxnFistEntertainment]

[@cardkoda]

Scott is literally a Barbarian that has his Charisma and Dexterity Stats Maxed out. It's rare seeing someone so passionate and talented yet humble and personable. He deserves so much more credit than he's ever received.

[@kaelthunderhoof5619]

So he's a Chieftain.

[@GentlemanWiz]

Nah pretty sure he's a monk. He's brimming with finesse & wisdom too much to be a barbarian

[@arthurtwa]

He could also be a fighter. Not all Fighters have STR, some specialize in martial arts and Dexterity.

[@asianotakuguy]

Scott really knows how to engage with the people he's talking to. He's talking *_with_* them, not *_to_* them.

[@richd8907]

Agreed - no ego, just happy to be chatting with friends.

[@alastormedial]

That reminds me, when the heck are we getting the Jessica half of that Swordguy episode?

[@michaelsoltesz3779]

He either read the book on "how to be successful" several times....or he is in the process of writing it. 😉

[@mycotrees]

omg niko’s best effort to hide his excitement at scott’s comment “i need you to choreograph one of my films” was so cute

[@jimlassiter749]

It definitely should be a Batman short.....

[@tombstone4908]

it was adorable, yes. I also ruined the 69 btw, man I've always wanted to say that.

[@murrothbro195]

As soon as Nerf Jon Wick came up and he's like "I need you to poke as many holes as possible..." pffft it's gonna be nothing but praise and Niko knows it. That video is top tier action. That's the whole conceit of Corridor IMO - indie studio that does it better than the big boys

[@vipe650r]

It was so genuine and sweet. He was on cloud 9.

[@mannya.h.967]

He was so obviously flattered and starstruck when he was just complimenting the Nerf John Wick video (rightfully so, it’s one of the best original action videos this platform ever put out), so sweet to see him happy to be acknowledged by someone he has so much respect for.

[@juliocesarjimenez7050]

I love how both Niko and Freddie go absolute fanboy when Scott is around... Scott: *breathes* Niko and Freddie: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@nykolairifo8612]

I know it's so cute! !😂

[@turbotrup96]

It's annoying, laughing at tiniest jokes

[@irishpieceoftrash]

I love that Niko looked like all his Christmases and Birthdays had come at once when Scott not only complimented the choreography in the short films, but said to come and choreograph one of his films.

[@jcheck1107]

[@alfredgomez3128]

I notice it was lower than head level. He can make his average, or worst, take better than the best of new, untrained, people.

[@dibrenn3432]

What a perfect fit for the corridor guys. Scott’s a class act and absolute legend. Having him compliment your choreo tho? Sheeesh man. What a dope thing to put on ur resume

[@arynnritter4293]

@oeufdufromage This guy. It is well choreographed and he was also being nice. Both are true.

[@bobenon1]

@oeufdufromage Professionals vs a VFX artist, ofc the professionals will be better. But that doesn't make it bad. Just to give an example, take prime Usain Bolt vs the number 100 fastest guy in the world. Usain bolt wins, but that doesn't make the other guy slow.

[@bobenon1]

@oeufdufromage No one said it was as good as a professional. My example is to show that just because one is better, doesn't mean that the other is bad.

[@dibrenn3432]

@oeufdufromage ok it’s your subjective opinion. But I’d bet money that he’d not only tell you their work was good, but also call you a total knob.

What a genuine guy Scott Adkins is. Out of literally any actor, he's the dude I would want to have a beer with. 🍻 Scott!

[@codyhillan6925]

If he could pull off an American accent and be extremely cocky, I could totally see him portraying an older Johnny Cage. A lot of his flips give me that vibe. He’s really entertaining to watch too!

[@TheHannahcast]

The legit good gun-fu fight choreography in Nerf John Wick just makes it even funnier. 🤣

[@karelpgbr]

Yeah wth

[@darkchild130]

It’s criminal how Scott has never broken the mainstream properly. In the 80s he’d be the biggest star on the planet.

[@jp3813]

The competition was fiercer in the 80s for both Hollywood & Hong Kong action.

[@JuggyBohab]

i think if undisputed 2 was released anytime between 95-02 he would. undisputed 2 was in 06 and i think he JUST missed the cutoff. he absolutely should be a megastar. and it is indeed a crime. he should be a go to action guy in hollywood. he's got character range he does great fight scenes and he's a good looking dude. it's so odd he's not a household name.

[@a.w_.]

A lot of his stuff went direct-to-video as well so didn't reach the audiences cinema releases can

[@freespirit3508]

He's still a big player.

[@ellejay5024]

Honestly, even though he said he doesn't want to do anything outside of action, it might do him well to expand a little just for the notoriety

[@ehongkongwong]

I love that Scott seems nothing like the characters he portrays. He often plays the bad guys who are kind of a dick, but he's a really cool dude IRL.

[@wearywanderer7018]

Most of these martial artists/actors are like that Their characters are savages but I’m real life they’re super nice

[@JuggyBohab]

[@owenlee7146]

Tbh most actor who are willing to play the bad guy aren't a bad person. They are professionals who don't mind their image being "damaged". Meanwhile some actor have to control over how badly their ass can be kicked in the movie. Or how flawless their character have to be.

[@ehongkongwong]

@@owenlee7146 Yeah, I heard about how Vin Diesel and The Rock had a contract on how many hits each one could take relative to the other. It's stupid egotistical BS. Just makes me respect and appreciate actors like Scott even more.

Damn, Scott is such a great guest for the show, he talks more than most of your guests and after getting the question he just carries the conversation forward, constantly feeding information to the viewer. Honestly a pleasure to listen to him, his insight and knowledge of the industry are delivered so well to the viewers. I guess what makes such a difference is the fact that Scott not only has the knowledge since he does the stunts, but his actual acting experience helps him hold the conversation on camera in a very chill yet information packed manner.

[@nickknight8692]

The forearm part, where he is talking about martial artists not being hurt by it; it is called mirco-fracturing. That's how you can do the knuckle punches and shit. Even being out of it for years, it is still noticeable. I could kick tree stumps and be fine, where my cousin broke a toe hitting the wall. Taekwondo is mostly focused around legs, this man Scott prob had to do outside conditioning.

[@prgnify]

Weird you say that, cause from my experience fighting guys who did taekwondo basically every block is a fore-arm block, like the an makgi or arae makgi. Also, when blocking with forearms so much the muscles absorb a lot of the hit, you can see in the scene at 10:52 when he says he is anticipating the kick, he uses the flexor muscles to absorb it. A friend of mine who did Taekwondo had the strongest forearm of everyone I knew

Stupid idea for a fun video: "what's even happening?" The idea is its an action type video, but EVERYTHING is just all out of whack, some examples: - someone gets kicked in the gut but act like they got hit in the face, - using a gun to stab someone like its a knife, - backhand slapping someone and their head violently explodes, - landing a hit and the reaction are obviously out of timing, - a guy gets hit in the nads and upon impact the camera cuts and the *actor* is swapped with an *actress* - one scene theres so many jump cuts that the fighters stop as if they're aware its happening, and wait for a steady camera to continue the fight etc etc :p

[@ezn]

In “Never Back Down”, there’s a fight with a capoeira fighter who gets knocked to the floor half way through a front flip. If you search KZbin, you can find a behind the scenes footage of this fight showing that it was done in a single take. My question is, how did that guy drop to the floor so fast? Was it a wire pull? If so, how is the wire attached allowing him to do all the flips and shit before the hit? If it wasn’t a wire pull, how did he kill the momentum of his front flip so fast? Did he just take that hit for real?

Hey, I’m assuming you mean the fight where the capoeira fighter gets knocked in one punch by the main antagonist? Essentially, the actor attempts a cartwheel into the antagonist in attempts to make a move. If you watch the clip, you’ll notice that the capoeira guy makes a complete rotation onto his feet before getting “hit”. It’s actually not too difficult to reverse the momentum from forward to backwards as long as you have your feet planted and are anticipating a strike. As soon as the capoeira guy gets hit, he shoots his legs out from underneath him, and arches his upper body towards the floor. This gives the effect that the punch was effective enough to knock him out in one punch through sheer force and accuracy!

@@KidRyu_ Yeah Capoeria guy obviously knows hes supposed to get punched because of choreography. So as soon as his feet hit the ground he throws himself back hard, at the moment the punch is to land

Niko "It's just a lot of, like, doing it in your imagination over & over. It's watching John Wick, and then like, playing with the Nerf gun _pretending_ you're John Wick" Ahh, the Lee Strasburg method. As David Harbour said about it on Hot Ones "...it's not about actually like, *being* the character, because you can't. It's about your metaphoric relationship. Acting _as if_ you're the character"

Hell or high water!!! The gas station scene with the green dodge. That is a epic scene

I love this man - Mr. Scott Adkins.. i really think he is the best martial artist in the world. He have the belts, experience, and he most of all.. he have something most other dont have.. he is humble and down to earth...

[@failedleopard3685]

10:49 I honestly don't think it looks like he did it too soon, to me, it looks like the character saw an incoming hit and put their arms up to protect their torso/head by pure reaction. Don't know the movie or the character is about, it looks like how a normal person might protect themselves from being hit after being hit already

[@SomePotato]

Too soon probably means something like 200ms too soon.

[@lordomacron3719]

he proberaly meant he had lifted his guard before the kick started so to him it was too soon if only by a fraction of a second

[@ruuman]

I thought it looked great, like he was weakened through the attack.

[@deddwolf]

This dude needs his own john wink series. He has so much Charisma and his accent is so buttery smooth.

[@khaansulu5695]

What's this John Wink's deal? Does he just going around winking at people?

[@Yoarashi]

@@khaansulu5695 One assumes he does everything John Wick does, but adds his own little flourish by winking after each fight :)

[@joshualeet]

Just want to thank you guys for finally getting Scott on here for a couple of episodes. I absolutely love hearing his opinions.

[@jimklein8627]

To the 417 people who gave this a thumbs 👎 down. RIDICULOUS!! That was a ton of fun watching Scott Adkins explain the art of how an action movie works. WELL DONE!!

[@borisp9163]

That scene where Scott forgot to fight and then he remember is actually one of the best from his work in my opinion, its so satisfing to whatch that transition between average nonfighter and fucking confident fighting mashine, fighting is actually knowledge, this realy works in movies, evolving, change, improvement, I think his talent is often shaded with no very good scripts.

Seeing Scott on the channel completes it for me. I'd love to see Scott and Gui on at the same time that would be really cool

[@christhomas1806]

So glad you guys got Scott! One of the most underrated dudes working in Hollywood ✊🏾

[@jameskatu6339]

When Scott says we did the Best we could for 2 day shoots of fight scenes in a small budget film but with top tier Martial Arts actors that wanted to work with each other vs 7day shoot in a Big Budget HK film. Talk bout modest it’s the fight scenes n actions that make or break an martial arts action film & you guys Killed it & we appreciate the Yards!!

[@ParkourEh]

I was actually quite impressed by the 'Infinity War' opening bout between Thanos and Hulk and Hawkeye/Ronin vs. the Yakuza in 'Endgame'. For a superhero movie the last thing I expected were things that weren't super fanciful but was just pure dirty boxing and some stylized fighting without showing a lot of fighting.

[@shaid1111]

You shouldn't be impressed when movies like that do the bare minimum. They got the budget to excell and they just don't.

[@Otakahunt]

@@shaid1111 thats not even the bare minimum... its significantly different to make superhero fights than regular people... you just cant have the same type of fights when the fighters can literally break a normal man in half, with a punch. The physics change completely... they have to change, otherwise the participants look comically underpowered.

[@ParkourEh]

@@shaid1111 I think you've missed the point, but if you wanna talk about budget maybe wait until Corridor makes a "TV/Film Producers React" series lol

[@ISirSmoke]

[@edpena516]

Scott's is a really an institution when it comes to action, fight choreography, and stunts. Really love this series as well. How about Ray Park in the green crouch reacting to stunts?

[@Devilich]

Scott is simply the best guest

[@Ballacks101]

Just watched Nobody. Great action film. Loved the long takes and how the fighting looked more real with Hutch taking lots of hits. Love you guys to look at it.

[@brownranger1797]

Scott is incredibly wholesome. Love him for coming on!

[@nacantremember]

Love Scott , a truly skilled professional without being a complete bighead . Respect to the guy who respects others .

[@thepotcast4738]

I loved that Scott acknowledge how underused Iko was In "Triple Threat" mans a beast, but serves the story/characters more. And that's beautiful.

[@DaSorys]

This episode was such a pleasure to watch! Thank you guys!

[@antoniocarbajal6248]

Oh no, another Stuntmen react!? Well, I guess the whole "going to work" thing must wait for another twenty minutes.
